Tradition
Knitwear couture since 1979
In the south of Bavaria, in the “Chiemgau” between Munich and Salzburg, the Wolkenstricker atelier near Traunstein creates cardigans that go around the world.
Now in its second generation, the atelier creaters and presents annual collections for autumn/winter and spring/summer.
The love of craftsmanship creates wearable works of art that are timeless and are passed on from generation to generation.

WITH HEART AND LOVE
A valuable product is created from the understanding of maintaining and continuing tradition.
The family business was founded in 1979 by Eva Dietrich. The knowledge of the treasure trove of historical hand-knitted patterns and the idea of transforming them into extraordinary fashion have always been the basis for the development of the precious cardigans. The aim was and still is to feel beautiful, comfortable and stylish in them.
Today, Konstanze Hofinger is the second generation to carry on the legacy.
Wolkenstricker has the quality that our fast-moving consumer goods lack in the traditions of old craftsmanship. It is the result of centuries of development, which has allowed it to mature in its practicality and simple beauty.
A Wolkenstricker cardigan is created lovingly and without time constraints, carefully crafted by skilled knitters and embroiderers. A luxury that arises less from material motivation than from idealistic appreciation.
FROM TRADITION AND EXPERIENCE
Every Wolkenstricker cardigan is timelessly unique.
The valuable craftsmanship characterises each of our cardigans. The cut and knitting techniques create a garment that is unrivalled in terms of quality and finish. Most of our customers never part with their Wolkenstricker treasures. Instead, they pass them on to the next generation with great appreciation.
This is an understanding of values that we uphold and are leading into the future as a family business with the third generation.
